Can anybody tell me if a company imports adjustable king pin assembly's? http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/k-pr ... em/110404/ I messaged the above company and they said they don't ship/sell to Australia. Any ideas?

Suzuki sell a king pin fix shim that you use to load up the bearing and apparently fix the jimny wobble. Suzistore sell them also

Couldn't get some and get the bolt/flange face machined more? Then shim to suit.

Could do it that way but involves pulling stuff apart. I was hoping to just do the adjustments without that drama.

the worry with these is its hard enough to keep dirt and moisture out of the factory king-pin setup without adding another avenue for it to get in there

Surely loosening the king pins and popping one at a time out to shim it up is a 30 sec job ??? Too hard ?
This is the fix suzuki suggest now and u can buy genuine shims for this specific purpose ?
